a-k Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Just now, Adman said: Handballiest handball ever. Utterly impossible that someone has decided that handball was not handball. It was intentional. They were probably confused and overwhelmed because they are usually freeze-framing looking for any incidental ball-to-hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't celebrate that goal for exactly that reason. In reality, I should have been going mad as we grabbed a last minute equaliser to stay unbeaten at home this season. This is what VAR has created and us fans are the ones suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Personally I think it speaks volumes that they are not showing that handball clip above in the media and debating it. Like the PGMOL have told Sky to leave it alone, it's so blatantly obvious, should be big news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He swings his arm at it then tries to grab Ramsey so it looks like he pushed him. Absolute Farce 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 The goal ruled out because they haven't got the ball under control as a Sheff Utd player literally dribbles the ball out the box. Meanwhile, City v Villa, Mings chests the ball down and is then challenged by Rodri who was 30 yards offside. No no, that's fine, it's another phase of play, goal given. Amazing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I want to hear the audio from the disallowed goal, did they even discuss the phase of play? Insanity. I was screaming at the television that it's a different phase of play and i'm sure every Villa fan was as well. Sheffield are running off with the ball FFS! The handball is also criminal. It's a clear, deliberate handball in the box. You can't swing your arm at the ball and intentionally control it, it was nowhere near the shoulder and if he didn't swing his arm out, the ball maybe glances off of him. Nobody is complaining if that's given a pen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF, this was years ago, they acknowledged it was wrong and changed the rules/interpretation specifically because of that incident didn't they? It's frustrating but doesn't make sense to look at incidents in different seasons when it's in areas where the rules and guidance have changed between those seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They doubled down on why the decision was given on field „attacker receiving the ball is not offside” despite Rodri tackling mings, not receiving the ball from me. Changed the wording and said it won’t happen again. they never said they were wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I am convinced if this was the other way around no way they would have given that goal to us vs City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May-Z Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Even if the push on Watkins is not a foul and consistent with the Joelinton goal...the defender than has a handful of shirt that he yanks as well. To me, the Watkins push, handball, and Ramsey shirt pulling can't be waived as 'objective decisions' because they're so **** obvious. They are literally textbook infringements that will be shown as examples of what these fouls should look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 The way I view the shite decisions last night is that Sheff Utd fans can now stop bleating on about the ghost goal a few years ago. I expected some questionable decisions last night, which was the case as 2 wrongs clearly make a right in the eyes of the PGMOL. At least that’s what the conspiracy theorist that lives in my head thinks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
